Los Angeles, Nov. 5 (U.R).
Peggy Larue Satterle, 16-year-old night club charmer, testified today that film actor Errol Flynn stopped at a physician’s office “to get some vitamin B pills, or something,” before he took her aboard his yacht for the cruise on which he is accused of raping her twice. She and Flynn were having dinner at Chasen’s, she said, before boarding the Sirocco, Flynn’s yacht, for a weekend cruise to Catalina Island. She said Flynn telephoned his doctor while they were dining and that on the way to the yacht harbor he stopped at the doctor’s office. “He got some vitamin B pills, or something,” she said, to the high amusement of the courtroom crowd.

The Fifth of November, 2020
A Timely Interruption
“The film V for Vendetta is a wonderful mix of Phantom of the Opera, Errol Flynn, and the Count of Monte Cristo, combined with modern day reaction to government overreach.”
“V is a beautiful spectacle of a film, with heavy doses of Shakespeare and Errol Flynn…”
“V is an anti-hero character … with an endearing Errol Flynn like persona.”
“V is dashing and sympathetic, like an anarchist Errol Flynn.”
“The film does a phenomenal job of insinuating flippant Errol Flynn…”

“Errol Flynn’s wives, fiances, wives, and assorted girlfriends – in screen adventures, as well as his well-heeled real life – have tended toward the dark, sultry, exotice type. But Flynn has just changed.”

New York Times
“Rocky Mountain (1950) – Errol Flynn is an ever gallant fellow, but he seems to carry gallantry too far in Warner Brothers’ “Rocky Mountain,” which came to the Strand yesterday. So far, in fact, does he carry it in guiding a beautiful dame from a horde of ravaging Indians that he ends up as full of arrows as a war-bonnet is full of feathers. And that’s about as far as one can go. The only valid explanation for (Mr. Flynn’s conclusive gallantry is that he here represents a Confederate captain and therefore a Southern gentleman. And it seems that a standing rule at Warners is that a Southern gentleman will lay down his life for a lady, even though it means disobeying Robert E. Lee.”

The Ghost of Mulholland — The Specter of Errol — — Was it Real? Who was It?

Happy Errolween. October 31, 2020. Don’t be afraid of no ghosts.
The Ghost of Mulholland
Many if not most residents of and visitors to Mulholland Farm after Errol’s death claim that the home and estate was haunted. Some, like Ricky Nelson, believed it was Errol himself. Ricky’s daughter, Tracy, believed it was haunted by an angry woman. Others reported to have experienced a ghost of an identity unknown to them. Perhaps there were multiple ghosts? Or, perhaps there were none at all.
What do you believe?
The excellent video below provides a brief history of Mulholland Farm, asserting unequivocally, beginning at 6:57, that there was a ghost.

The Specter of Errol?
